Mars Attacks

No, not really, but I couldn't resist the title! However, Mars did go direct on the 19th of May, after nearly three months of being retrograde, and transiting the sign of Libra since the 7th of December 2013. So it's 'all systems go' as the planet of action takes off around the zodiac. 
The really interesting part will be when Mars revisits the other planets which formed the Grand Cross - Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto - in mid June. As is often the case, it's the final contact which really triggers the energy of the planets involved, so it will be interesting to see what happens.
